She broke up her first fight at 11. By the time she was a teenager she knew everything about the place, and she could run it with her eyes closed. She\u2019d never let anyone\u2014whether it be a drunkard or a captain of the queen\u2019s guard\u2014take advantage of her. But when her guardian dies, she might lose it all: the bar, her home, her purpose in life. So she heads out on a quest to petition the queen to keep the tavern in her name\u2014dodging unscrupulous guards, a band of thieves, and a powerful, enchanted feather that seems drawn to her. Fast-paced, magical, and unapologetically feminist, Wench is epic fantasy like you\u2019ve never seen it before. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n\t\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\t\"@type\":\"Review\",\n\t\"datePublished\": \"2021-01-25T11:00:17+00:00\",\n\t\"description\": \"Happy Monday and welcome to my stop on the blog tour for WENCH by Maxine Kaplan!

What about a week? A month, year, or forever?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div>I had to think hard about this, because I routinely imagine myself into the lives of book characters! But, in light of all I&#8217;ve been deprived of in 2020, I&#8217;ve decided to go with Mame Dennis, a\/k\/a Auntie Mame, Patrick Dennis&#8217;s amazing creation. Mame is an independently wealthy, almost absurdly bohemian, 1920s flapper with a full social calendar of parties with the most fascinating people, the newest plays and art exhibits, and a really very lovely relationship with her nephew. I&#8217;d love to vacation for a few months in her life right about\u00a0 now. She also has the most fabulous wardrobe imaginable.<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What would you do if you spent the day with Tanya? Where would you go to eat, hang out, relax, etc.?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If I was going to spend the day with Tanya, I think an old fashioned bake cookies-gossip-watch-teen-<wbr \/>movies day would be in order. Tanya would be the best for baked\u00a0goods and spilled tea, and I could maybe help her kick back and relax a bit&#8211;something she sorely needs.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If Tanya were to hang out with characters from other books, who would they be and why?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I think Tanya could hang out with the denizens of Ankh-Morpork, the biggest city in Terry Pratchett&#8217;s Discworld, without skipping a beat. She is unflappable and curious&#8211;both qualities that would serve her well in maneuvering the wizards, dwarves, werewolves, etc. of Ankh-Morpork and already has experience in dealing with a charming dictator, so would ingratiate herself with Lord Vetinari pretty quickly I&#8217;d bet!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What is your favorite quote, scene, or moment from <em>Wench<\/em>?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This is such a hard one! I&#8217;m really fond of both the Queen&#8217;s inner sanctum in the Glacier and basically everything that takes place in Bloodstone, a town run for and by criminals in the mouth of a demon-cursed volcano. I love the various factions I invented in Bloodstone and would have loved to have spent a good longer while in the secret women-run marketplace in Bloodstone, the Night Swap. I feel like I barely scratched the surface of the culture there, and I&#8217;m very into it.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>What was your favorite bit of research you ended up not using?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>I did go down a bit of a metallurgy rabbit hole at one point when drafting this book&#8211;specifically reading really old texts on alchemy. I didn&#8217;t find any way to use it, but I find the idea of alchemy very aesthetically pleasing.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Were there alternate endings you considered, or did you always know where the story was headed?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I actually did change the ending quite\u00a0a lot! Originally, Tanya&#8217;s adventure took her to Bloodstone before she even met the Queen, which greatly diminished the latter&#8217;s effect on Tanya&#8217;s arc. Tanya was originally going to end up in a very different place emotionally, a much more conflicted place, but I like that I left her in a place of greater safety&#8211;and a place with a lot of scope for more stories.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9377\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Simple-Banner-Winter-2020.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"70\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Simple-Banner-Winter-2020.png 850w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Simple-Banner-Winter-2020-300x25.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Simple-Banner-Winter-2020-768x63.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Bookstagram-Winter-2020.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Bookstagram-Winter-2020.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Bookstagram-Winter-2020-300x59.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Bookstagram-Winter-2020-768x150.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CKemRH_AjBS\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10373\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/wench-bookstagram-final.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/wench-bookstagram-final.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/wench-bookstagram-final-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/wench-bookstagram-final-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/wench-bookstagram-final-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/wench-bookstagram-final-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/wench-bookstagram-final-1536x1536.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9377\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Simple-Banner-Winter-2020.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"70\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Simple-Banner-Winter-2020.png 850w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Simple-Banner-Winter-2020-300x25.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Simple-Banner-Winter-2020-768x63.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9421\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/About-the-Author-Winter-2020.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/About-the-Author-Winter-2020.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/About-the-Author-Winter-2020-300x59.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/About-the-Author-Winter-2020-768x150.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-10344 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/maxine-kaplan-author-pic-1-300x279.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"279\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/maxine-kaplan-author-pic-1-300x279.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/maxine-kaplan-author-pic-1.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<div>\n<p><strong>Maxine Kaplan<\/strong>\u00a0was born in Washington, DC.
